Family Album

They take the powder then leave they circle back around for the wings They've stripped you of flight turned you back into an insect no hope to reach the yellowing light Before your last breath they've already slanted the epitaph. In the aftermath there's no empathy no chance to speak or weave an alibi, all good deeds downplayed or forgotten, A nameless moth in the back of the family album.
